We went to the doctor today and Kaylee now weighs 17 lbs 1 oz (the 10-25%) and She grew and inch 26 1/2 inches tall! (Also 10-25%) The doctor was impressed with all that she can do and said that she is doing fantastic. It is funny because she always gets comments about how small she is (I swear I feed this girl!) and she was born at 8 lbs 3oz which a good big baby size! But we love our little mover and feel blessed to have her in our lives!
Kaylee has quite the personality. She crawls everywhere and gets into EVERYTHING! She loves to be with her mom and dad and it is heaven when she can be with both at the same time! Family time rocks!
Stare down! I love Kaylee in pigtails! She is so adorable! Kaylee is also able to pull herself up on things and has started to cruise walking from object to object trying to travel!
Kaylee can also clap on command! She rewards herself when she does a good deed with a nice applaude! It is so cute. She can wave, and occationally give high fives. She is so talented!
Most of all, she is so goofy! She loves making faces and moving her newly discovered tongue! I love this cute personality emerging from our little girl! She is going to say the funniest things when she can talk. Oh, talking about talking, she can say dada, mama, and garbles. Not the word garbles, but the strangest garbley sounds come out of her mouth sometimes. We love to hear her talk. I will post some videos below.
9 months in, now 9 months out! I have had to share her with the world for 9 months! I had her all to myself for 9 before that! Oh how time flys!
Now, for the videos:
The above video is a little example of the sounds and talking that comes out of her mouth.
The above video is after a day where I had to postpone her second nap. So she is slightly slap happy and that is my favorite because I can make her laugh for once!
Happy 9 months my little Kaylee! You're the cutest!
I haven't posted in awhile so I thought I would share a few fun moments we have had lately. As Kaylee grows it is fun to introduce her to new thing whether it is food, or hair styles. Here are a few pictures of our adventures. I use that term loosely.
First time chomping down a peach with daddy
I decided to try out pigtails. It was a wiggly job, but it worked.
July 4th weekend, Great Grandma Burroughs came to visit and got this lovely moment of Kaylee asleep on her lap. What a perfect picture!!
Happy Fathers Day to all the Fathers out there! Especially to Curtis Connors and Don Sproul, who are wonderful dad's and father in laws to us and WONDERFUL Grandpas to Kaylee!
But most of all I would like to say Happy Fathers Day to my wonderful husband Kevin. He is such a great dad and has such a great time with Kaylee. I know that he looks forward every day to see Kaylee when he gets home from work. He loves to play with her and see her accomplishments. He is so proud of her and feels so blessed to have her in his life! Here is some pictures of the two of them together!
So one of my favorite stories of me as a kid was when I was hiding in the laundry basket. My mom saw me and pretended she didn't noticed and went on doing laundry as normal. I then exclaimed, "I'm not a laundry! I'm a Cindy!" Very cute! So I found this to be a fun and easy way to change the laundry loads while Kaylee is awake.
Kevin and I had been to the zoo a long ways back when my niece Paisley was a baby and we were childless. But for Mother's Day Kevin bought me Zoo passes!! SO HAPPY! So last Saturday we took Kaylee to the zoo for the first time. Of course she hung out in her stroller and drank a bottle not paying too much attention to the animals, but it was super fun! I love walking around the zoo. I could have stayed there longer but since we have passes and Kevin has a bad back, we headed back after about 2 hours. Here is a few pictures of our zoo adventure!
Me and Kaylee ready to go into the Zoo
I love her dress! It reminds me so much of the zoo! Flamingo!
Daddy and Kaylee with the flamingos in the zoo!
Of course we had to drop by and visit by brother!
There he is. Swimming happily in the water! Too bad we missed his show. We will catch it another day!
To clear the confusion since clearly I am not a seal myself, my family has many inside jokes. They all have odd stories. This one starts without me. My family (minus me who was living in Joshua Tree, CA at the time) all went to Sea World in San Diego where there was a show called Fools with tools. It was a Sea Lion/ Seal show. Charlie and Dad then started calling it Charlie with tools or Dad with tools. Then somehow that turned into one of them being a Seal. I side with my dad on this one. For it is Charlie who is a seal. I know, it is weird. But very entertaining for us. Anyway, it was a perfect day and we had so much fun! Looking forward to many fun trips to the zoo this year!
These pictures are from a week or two ago but I realized it was June and I needed to put my pictures on the computer. I gave her frozen cubes of pureed prunes in the mesh feeder. Such a mess! She loves prunes! Which is good because we have been having poo issues. Anyway, ENJOY!
Who could resist this face! And that HAIR! I love her cute hair! Long and strait! Hope it stays that way for her sake! My hair is crazy. She gets it from Kevin!
